Description : test configuration plugin for nosetests
nose-testconfig is a plugin to the nose test framework which provides a
faculty for passing test-specific (or test-run specific) configuration data to
the tests being executed.
.
Currently configuration files in the following formats are supported:
* YAML (via python-yaml)
* INI (via ConfigParser)
* Pure Python (via Exec)
* JSON
.
The plugin is meant to be flexible, ergo the support of exec'ing arbitrary
Python files as configuration files with no checks. The default format is
assumed to be ConfigParser ini-style format.
.
The plugin provides a method of overriding certain parameters from the command
line (assuming that the main "config" object is a dict) and can easily have
additional parsers added to it.
.
A configuration file may not be provided. In this case, the config object is an
emtpy dict. Any command line "overriding" paramters will be added to the dict.
